Here's something interesting to note: Animal Crossing DS is not only still selling well, but it's also still in the Top 5, and nearing 2million copies sold in Japan alone. A winning franchise? Yeah, we think so.

Also worth mentioning is that the new re-release of Suikoden 1&2 on the PSP is not even in the Top 15, meanwhile the latest entry in the series, part V for the PS2, is sitting at #2. Now we all know Japan likes their Gensou Suikoden quite a lot, so why the apparent lack of interest when the two starting titles in the franchise are repackaged on a portable console?

Other than that, we see the DS is still going strong and in the lead, though the PSP is quickly gaining some ground not far behind it. Expect that to change for the next hardware sales report, as the DS Lite hits Japan today.
